Breast milk is tailored for your baby and changes throughout the day, with the seasons, as they grow, and to help them fight off illnesses.

Breastfeeding provides
• Signals that it’s time to sleep
• Extra hydration when it’s hot
• Specific antibodies when mum or baby is sick
• Adapted fat content and nutrients as they grow
